<nettime> Free Culture movement |
"Some years ago, the elements (ideas, conceptions, practices, people) that compose the current (so-called) Free Culture movement were appropriated by the bureaucrat and the capitalist. The ones that made use of the technologies and available media to the creation of actions that provided the debate on new perspectives of possible social arrangements (obtained by tools such as free licenses, networks of communication, open source software), are today digested by the old apparatuses and social mechanisms that once they have used and questioned. They participated, many times unconsciously, in a "socio-professional trainingâ" in order to occupy the same functions established for the maintainers of a system that is distant from what we imagine as a possible human grouping, even more distanced from freedom." submidialogy. ============= Global Islands Project: http://bbrace.net/id.html "We fill the craters left by the bombs And once again we sing And once again we sow Because life never surrenders." -- anonymous Vietnamese poem "Nothing can be said about the sea." -- Mr Selvam, Akkrapattai, India 2004 "... for every star-driven enterprise there are corollary benefits for those who support it and keep their mouths shut." -- John Young, NYC 2010 "Shikata ga nai -- There's nothing we can do about it." -- Japanese tsunami survivors, 2011 { brad brace } <<<<< bbrace@eskimo.com >>>> ~finger for pgp --- bbs: brad brace sound --- --- http://69.64.229.114:8000 --- --- http://bradbrace.net/undisclosed.html --- .
